“We booked via "Hideaways" and the service was trouble-free.”

The property was surprisingly spacious for a two bedroomed cottage; it was cosy and well-equipped. The garden was pretty and well kept. The only surprise was that gas and electricity were not included in the price, but were calculated at the end of our stay.\
Chilmark is a very quiet village - no street lighting - but it does have a lovely pub with good food. There are lots of nice walks nearby and cycling is probably an attractive proposition. It's 12 miles to Salisbury which is definitely worth one or two visits. The nearest small town for shopping is Tisbury, 3 miles away via a very minor road. Tisbury also has a rail station and is on the line from Waterloo.

Guest's review on TripAdvisor

“Booking was easy and was very professionally handled, although I was a bit puzzled why it was not possible, even in off-season, to book from Sunday to Sunday - we had to leave on Saturday although no new guests were arriving that day.”

The amenities of the cottage were exactly as described and pictured on the website - best I've ever had in a self-catered cottage. However, the instructions on how to get the central heating running (found in a folder in the cottage) could have been clearer. The location in the small village of Chilmark is lovely, and it's easy to get to the nearby cities and sightseeing spots such as Salisbury and Stonehenge by car. The village pub is highly recommended as well!

“What a lovely home!”

We spent a wonderful week in this charming, well equipped house which is perfectly located between the glorious sights of Stonehenge, Salisbury and Bath. After sightseeing, we could return to this quiet oasis on the countryside. Amazing!

The property

Appealing in looks, Winterbourne Cottage is a charming and deceptively spacious place in which to enjoy a short break or longer holiday.

Set on the edge of the picturesque Wiltshire village of Chilmark, guests will enjoy spending time being part of this small rural community with a visit to the local pub or a walk around its quiet, leafy lanes.

Once inside, you'll find a bright and airy Living Room with French windows opening out onto a delightful rear garden: a lovely place to sit and listen to the hum of the bees and the birdsong as you enjoy a quiet drink or two.

A mix of traditional and modern furnishings gives a sense of 'times gone by' while at the same time ensuring guests have all the comforts they need to be able to relax.

A good choice for families or couples alike.

About the location

CHILMARK

Tisbury 2; Shaftesbury 10; Salisbury 12.

The character village of Chilmark sits on the Wiltshire side of the border with Dorset, 2 miles from the bustling small town of Tisbury. Chilmark village boasts numerous attractive stone and thatched cottages, many made from local Chilmark stone, which was used in the construction of Salisbury's 13th century cathedral. The surrounding Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and gently undulating chalk downland provides wonderful walking opportunities, while there are also many delightful places to visit, such as picturesque Stourhead, historic Shaftesbury, Longleat, ancient Stonehenge, or the magnificent cathedral city of Salisbury. This great location has plenty to offer at any time of the year.
